Can you leave batteries in the charger for a week or two after fully charged?

I have not done that as of yet. It is my understanding you can leave them in as long as you want and a trickle charge will keep them at full charge. This info was from another sight.

It might make the batteries not recharge quite as many times, but I do it all of the time and have had my batteries (Enloop) and the charger for more than a year. I do recommend that the charger be put in "soft charge" mode if you are going to leave the batteries in for more than 4-12 hours.

You can leave batteries in the charger. I try not to make a habit of it because I'm not sure how it affects the life of the batteries. If you leave them in, at least you can be assured they will be ready for use.

Yes. Just put em' in and leave them. These chargers go into "Energy Save Mode" when the battery is charged, preventing damage to the cells. They come back on only to "trickle charge" when necessary.

Yes, just be very careful that you put them in correctly. Otherwise, any remaining charge in the battery will melt the charger.

Yes but generally speaking the manufacturer recommends leaving it in the charger only until it is fully charged.

I read somewhere you shouldn't leave the batteries and a charger. I have for tools now that run on those batteries. I use them in a commercial capacity And have for 5 years.

I am sorry, but I do not know the answer to this question. I normally put them on the charger and put other batteries in the unit the batteries were removed from. I put the discharged batteries in my charger, two or four at a time, plug it in and go about my activities. When they are charged the charger light turns off and I remove the charged batteries when I notice they are charged. Usually it will be the next morning or in the evening. It is not uncommon for batteries to be in the charger for eight to 12 hours. Tom Kerr

it depends on the charge condition of the batteries when you put them in the charger, but it could be up to 6-8 hours. these are great batteries though

We leave them on a little while longer without noticing any harm - and nothing in the packaging of any charger I've had suggests you have to get the batteries off immediately. I wouldn't store my batteries there :) But all that happens is the light for the charged battery goes solid and the others continue charging if needed.

Overnight and then I leave it in the charger all the time except for when I'm using it. You can't overcharge it.

Leave it in the charger as long as you want and it won't hurt the battery. It takes about 9 hours to fully charge. Therefore, I suggest you have two batteries.

The batteries are not protected and neither does the charger. So it is risky to leave it charging for extended period.

In our application we have had batteries in the charger for a year and a half, with no ill effect, so far. We have 3 batteries and rotate them thru the charger. Yes, no problem leaving them in the charger

You should never leave a battery in a charger unattended. There is always a slim chance of a battery or charger going bad, violently.

I don't know if there is a prescribed time for recharging; I don't remember any info on that with the batteries. I keep my batteries on the charger until I need to use them again, which is about once a week; sometimes longer. I've had my batteries for several years and they still work great.

Lithium batteries hold their charge for months. You do not need to leave it on the charger. This battery size will recharge within 15 minutes. The charger is smart, it will not attempt to continuously charge it when it does not need to. Leaving it on the charger will not hurt, but due to possible liability they tell you not to, since product failure with this much power potential can start a fire (very unlikely, but possible).

From my experience I wouldn't attempt to go over an hour. I had three batteries charged and ready at all times. When one would get low I would change it and put the used one on the charger. If you are shooting continuously go AC if you can't use AC keep an eye on your battery level. I hope this is helpful.

One or two hours at most. The worst thing is to run them all the way down, then put on the charger and forget about them. If you will look on Amazon. Under some or the batteries, they give you the do's and don't of how to get the most life out of your batteries.
